Question

A particle of mass 20 g is released with an initial velocity 5 m/s along the curve from the point A, as shown in the figure. The point A is at height h from point B. The particle slides along the frictionless surface. when the particle reaches point b, its angular momentum about O will be :
(Take g = 10 m/s2)

A6 kg-m2/s

Step-by-step explanation

Work Energy Theorem from A to B

Mgh = mv mv

2gh =

2 10 10 = v 52

vB = 15m/s

Angular momentum about 0

L0 = mvr

= 20 103 20

L0 = 6 kg.m2/s
